Forest plots of direct comparison of (a) HHS and (b) the treatment failure rates included in the network meta-analysis in a Bayesian framework. CD: core decompression; ESWT: extracorporeal shock wave; DD: multiple drilling decompression; VFG: vascularized fibular grafting; FVFG: free-vascularized fibular grafting; IFHG: inverted femoral head grafting (IFHG); VIPBG: vascular iliac pedicle bone grafting; TI: tantalum implantation.
